Meatballs in sauce are delicious meatballs made with minced beef and sausage, flavored with garlic, parsley, and Parmesan cheese. They are cooked in a tasty tomato sauce enriched with onion, basil, olive oil, salt, and pepper. This dish is rich in flavor and represents a classic first course of Italian tradition.
Place the minced meat in a bowl, add the crumbled sausage, finely chopped parsley and garlic, grated Parmesan, and the stale bread roll softened in water, squeezed and crumbled, then mix the ingredients with a wooden spoon.
When well combined, bind everything with a separately beaten egg with a pinch of salt and a grind of pepper.
From the mixture obtained, shape many small round meatballs with slightly moistened hands.
At this point, pour plenty of olive oil into a pan, heat it, and fry the meatballs over moderate heat for 4-5 minutes or until they are evenly golden.
At the end, remove them from the pan with a slotted spoon and place them on a sheet of absorbent paper to remove excess oil.
Clean the onion, chop it with a mezzaluna, and sauté it in a saucepan with a couple of tablespoons of oil over moderate heat for about 5 minutes.
Add the peeled and sieved tomatoes, season with salt.
